Ok, I am in the process of refinishing my outdrive. Currently i separated the lower from the upper halves, sanded it down and primered it with self etching primer. While having it apart I notice that the shaft that extends up into the upper unit, you can pull out on it just slightly and be able to move it up & down just a tad bit but when you push in on the shaft there is no play in it. Is this normal or is there a bearing in there that needs to be replaced?
